Solution
The correct option is AMgSO4>BaCl2>KCl>NaCl The minimum amount of an electrolyte required to cause precipitation of one liter of a colloidal solution is called the coagulation value or flocculation value of the electrolyte for the sol. The reciprocal of coagulation value is regarded as the coagulating power.
The correct order of flocculating power will be MgSO4>BaCl2>KCl>NaCl
